When i cleaned the throttle body/inlet manifold on our GDI it hunted for a couple of days and stalled twice , then it was fine and has been since. i guess the stepper motor needs to find a new datum or somehting

Got tied up with a POS Focus today, he did manage to get rear discs and pads fitted, so at least the car is road worthy now, I took the intake pipe off and had a nosey in the manifold, and JEEESSSSUUUSSSS is it sooty lol
So had the codes read, rear lambda sensor, but its working, we think its because of the poor running. Anyway, its his plan to remove the manifold ect on Sunday and give it a good clean out, watch this space....
